Challenge

Delays and supply chain disruption.

Solution

Proactive disruption intelligence and management. Use analytics to help predict and identify supply chain disruption and exception management to address supply chain issues before they impact customers.

Solution

Challenge

Without confidence in carrier lead times and ETAs, retailers spend valuable dollars on expedites to reduce stock outs.

Solution

Solution

Decrease accessorial and detention & demurrage fees. Identify shipments and orders that are likely to incur fees before they happen, and gain access into all freight at risk for detention and demurrage to reduce cost.

How We Solve Challenges for eCommerce Delivery

When customers don’t get the information they need they will ask for it, and each WISMO requests costs an average of $5 to resolve.

Solution
